A huge thank-you to all the fans, new friends and lovers of Hua Li, ¡Flist!, Saxsyndrum and DirtyOrgans for coming out to our very first ANL Showcase. That’s a wrap for us for 2014, but we’re bursting at the seams with videos, tours, and releases for next year.
Extra special kisses to Tyler Reekie for providing us with live visuals at Brasserie Beaubien, and Robby Reis for these photos!
The ever gracious Chart Attack have premiered the new video for Saxsyndrum’s Maceonectar, a vibrant and pulsing saxophone odyssey visually narrated by none other than Frances Adair McKenzie.
For me, listening to this piece is like a walk at sunrise (post-meditation) through a tropical aviary. The bird song elements and their disarming inorganic quality are what inspired the video’s looping, giffy style and the bright, bouncy, flickering and lo-fi aesthetic. – Frances Adair via Chart Attack
Maceonectar was first unvelied in October on XLR8R, taken from their new SXD_EP, released November 4th. Head over to our shop and get a copy of the limited edition cassette!.
Sometimes things come together a little too easily. December 6th, 2014, Art Not Love is taking over Brasserie Beaubien for an all night ANL love fest featuring live music by DirtyOrgans, Saxsyndrum, ¡FLIST!, and Hua Li 化力, with all night live visuals by Tyler Reekie. Come see and hear all the junk we’ve been talking about for the past year in the flesh as we tear everyone’s favourite venue to the ground. Poster artwork by none other than Jonny Negron.
Hoping to catch up with all our lost lovers. c u there..
